That's quite an investment chart. There are obviously lots of customers for CO2. I was watching (I think) a Nova piece on some volcano in Africa (I think --- I was paying lots of attention LOL) . CO2 came up through the earth in the valley below and killed everyone and everything. One of the scientists lit a flare and the smoke hovered a few feet above the ground in a sheet. Beneath was the CO2, just high enough to kill several children in a schoolyard nearby. Apparently it acts very quickly as people and animals had apparently not panicked.

How people can look at that graph and not draw a few conclusions is beyond me. A very common argument one sees is that because CO2 dipped between years xx-yy and the temp didn't, there cannot be a causal relationship. Duh, one has much higher frequency components! At some point we will hit another -0.4deg high frequency down spike in temp (while CO2 continues upward) and all the scientifically challenged will be sure those wicked scientists predicting global warming were clueless. LOL!
